Mount Garibaldi is the huge, potentially active volcano that Garibaldi Provincial Park is named after. Mount Garibaldi also lends its name to the Garibaldi Ranges, the group of mountain ranges that fill Garibaldi Park. A subsection of the Garibaldi Ranges is the Garibaldi Névé, which is the large icefield that stretches out along the east side of Mount Garibaldi.

Whether you are standing in Squamish or high up on Panorama Ridge, Mount Garibaldi towers in the distance. From a wonderful vantage point such as Brandywine Meadows high up in the mountains across the valley, Mount Garibaldi appears monstrously huge. It is easy to imagine it bursting to life as an active volcano, which it technically still is. Named after a 19th century patriot and soldier, Giuseppe Garibaldi, Mount Garibaldi is a massive 2678 metre giant at the southern end of the park. It was named after Garibaldi by Captain George Henry Richards of the Royal Navy in 1860. Guiseppe Garibaldi had gained worldwide acclaim that year by unifying Italy by repatriating Sicily and Naples. In 1907 a group of Vancouver climbers reached the summit of Mount Garibaldi and marvelled at the view. In particular, Garibaldi Lake and Black Tusk caught their interest. Several forays into the area followed and a regular hiking camp was established between Black Tusk and Garibaldi Lake. In 1920 the Garibaldi Park Reserve was established and in 1927 Garibaldi Provincial Park was born.

The next highest peak is Atwell Peak on the southern edge of the summit plateau, with an elevation of 2655 feet/8711 feet. Atwell Peak is named after Atwell King, who led the first recorded ascent of Mount Garibaldi in 1907. One of the guides in the party, Arthur Tinniswood Dalton, has the third highest peak of Mount Garibaldi named after him. Dalton Dome is located on the west of the main summit and sits at an elevation 2653 metres/8704 feet and can be distinguished by its rounded shape. Other minor summits on Mount Garibaldi include, The Tent at 2465 metres/8087 feet, Diamond Head at 2056 metres/6745 feet, and so named because of its resemblance to Hawaii's Diamond Head.
